“Crum & Forster’s decision to add DriveCam services is indicative of a rapidly growing trend we are seeing in the insurance industry,” said Eliot Feldstein, DriveCam Senior Vice President, Strategy and Corporate Development. “It makes perfect sense to add such a comprehensive safety program for policyholders with commercial fleets. Everyone wins.”

“Our primary goal in the insurance business is to reduce our customers’ risks,” said Mark Srygley, Senior Vice President of Middle Market. “By partnering with DriveCam, we are able to offer our policyholders a comprehensive suite of fleet safety solutions and risk management services, at a reduced cost. We have associated with DriveCam because of their proven track record to help fleet owners mitigate their risk exposures and create safer environments for all parties concerned. ”

DriveCam addresses safety by combining data and video analytics with real-time driver feedback and coaching, resulting in reductions in cost and fuel consumption. DriveCam accomplishes this using its Driver Science Engine®. Through a patented, iterative process of scoring, prioritizing and tracking the results of driving behaviors, this model identifies behavioral improvement opportunities for increased safety. In-cab video captures driving behavior, which is objectively reviewed and scored, then passed on to the fleet for use in coaching drivers.

Fleets manage the DriveCam Program through DriveCam Online®, a web-based online portal. Seamlessly integrated into DriveCam’s DC3 video event recorder and the DriveCam Online reporting solution, DriveCam’s Fuel Management Solution combines real-time, in-cab feedback with online reporting and coaching to improve fuel efficiency – by up to 12 percent – and lower emissions. Unlike other vehicle-centric fuel solutions, DriveCam’s solution focuses on the driver – specifically on the three driving behaviors that have the greatest impact on fuel efficiency: efficient or “smooth” driving, idling and speeding.
